(based on 8 ratings)

Located in: Cheese, Poland

Smoked Kurpianka is a sausage-shaped cheese with a semi firm texture from Poland. It is an instant palate pleaser with its smoky, edible rind and a pleasing springy texture that melts in your mouth. The smokiness is mild with a touch of garlic which complements this tasty cow's milk cheese. If you love smoked cheese try this new addition as a change from the usual smoked cheeses from Holland, Spain, and Germany.

Made from cow's milk.

It's ok, but very rubbery. The bouquet and taste make up for that however.

Comments about Smoked Kurpianka - Whole Form:

This is one of the few instances when calling a cheese rubbery is a compliment. It is not overpoweringly strong but it has lots of personality and should appeal to many who try it, including children. Kurpianka is a fun cheese to eat, not pretentious, and only a snob would look down his/her nose at it.

Comments about Smoked Kurpianka - Whole Form:

I bought this on the recommendation from another reviewer, the one that said he eats it while he surfs the net. The first time I ate this cheese I think I lost my mind. I love smoked foods and wish the smoked salmon had not been out of stock at the time I purchased it. Of the 1.5 pounds, I probably ate 2/3s of it by myself. If I were a mouse, I'd be a glutton mouse if I came across this cheese. Stores well and has a good shelf life. Will definitely be buying this again, but not often as I will devour it and surely that can't be good for my health.

I have tried numerous smoked cheeses and like this one as well or better than bruder basil. It has a nice smoky taste, a flavorful rind, and a hint of salt. a great cheese to eat while reading a book or watching a movie.
